Every hundred

  1. 200 v England, Lord's, 2021 · Away · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw, and his side was never in danger of losing, so the hundred didn't save anything.

  2. 122 v Bangladesh, Mount Maunganui, 2022 · At home · Lost

    A good ton. A loss: even a great hundred can't be a ton of consequence in a defeat.

  3. 109 v Bangladesh, Christchurch, 2022 · At home · Won

    A good ton. He made 21% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 1 for 148.

  4. 122 v Pakistan, Karachi, 2023 · Away · Drawn

    A good ton. A draw against a lower-tier side: a hundred doesn't save a draw against a side like that.

  5. 227 v West Indies, Mount Maunganui, 2025 · At home · Won

    A good ton. He made 40% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 0 for 0.

  6. 153 v Zimbabwe, Bulawayo, 2025 · Away · Won

    A good ton. He made 26% of the team's runs. The match didn't hinge on it: he came in at 0 for 0.

  7. 100 v West Indies, Mount Maunganui, 2025 · At home · Won

    A good ton. He came in comfortably, and the team did not depend on him.

  8. 157 v England, Nottingham, 2026 · Away · Won

    A ton of consequence: carried the innings. He made 157, 36% of New Zealand's 438, after coming in at 0 for 0 in the decider. New Zealand won by 160 runs. Another hundred came in the same innings.
